Dam Swindle delve deep into the Salsoul Records impressive back catalogue to present another two fresh, exciting remixes and edits of two of the label’s classics - Double Exposure ‘Everyman’ and Kongas ‘Kongas Fun’, released on 27 August. 

Following the duo’s acclaimed Vol.1 of remixes and edits of First Choice ‘Let No Man Put Asunder’ and Kebekelektrik ‘War Dance’, Dam Swindle immediately selected Double Exposure ‘Everyman’ because “the original had everything in it to get a classic Dam Swindle treatment”. Their remix takes the original up a tempo, yet still showcases the swirling strings and deliciously soulful Double Exposure vocals.

As with Kebekelektrik ‘War Dance’ from Vol.1, Dam Swindle chose Kongas ‘Kongas Fun’ which is a side project of Cerrone who, like Gino Soccio, was “so influential in the history of disco”. The vibrant, shimmering update is packed full of energetic percussion and proves why Dam Swindle chose to rework this lesser-known delight.  

Since forming in 2011, Amsterdam-based Lars Dales and Maarten Smeets aka Dam Swindle quickly broke through the electronic music scene. They have become known for their widescreen approach to making and playing club-ready grooves. From deep to disco, tech to soul, they join the dots between the past and the present with their own sense of storytelling and do so in clubs around the world, and in their own studio. 

Salsoul Records was founded in 1974 in New York by the Cayre brothers and represented names such as Loleatta Holloway (Love Sensation), First Choice, Instant Funk, Joe Bataan, The Salsoul Orchestra and produced some of the most sampled and beloved records of all time.

Early last year we played at the small but perfectly formed, Oma Doris club in Dortmund. 
One of the residents that night was a young DJ by the name of Mr Fries, who during the night handed us a CD of demos.

Immediately impressed with what we heard, the idea of an EP was formed. 
Nearly a year later we are proud to present the newest member of the pack!

First up on remix duties is Hodini whose recent EP on Max Graef and Glenn Astro, Money $ex Records has been on constant rotation since it's release.

Hodini is an alias of prolific German Hip-Hop producer, Hulk Hodn and a major influence on Mr Fries who has sighted he was one of reason he was one of the main reasons he started to make beats. 

To round of the EP we've enrolled long time friend Garth BE. The artist featured previously on WOLFEP003 back in 2009 with All The Thrills. Since then he has setup the fantastic Sweet Sticky Records, releasing two full length LPs to great acclaim.

Malmö’s own Sune secures Better Listen’s tenth release, continuing the label's love for all things Scandinavian. 'Butter Love' is an enchanting, dusty disco gem chock full of soul samples adorned by heady drum programming which implores you to "Dance...you've got nothing to loose".
This track and the whole EP actually is pure sunshine, and man do we need it right now!

PREMIERE: Lay Far - Submerging (Crackazat Rework) [Local Talk]

For the 5th time now, Nemoy managed to convince actual musicians to release something on his largely unsuccessful label. And oh boy, are those some actual musicians this time! Marlow and his partner in crime Rainer Trüby came up with a lush, deep house stomper featuring a little vocal shred we all think we know – but we really don’t! They are not so much into the obvious sample digs… Combined with some crazy hi hat work and all the minor 9th chords you can possibly handle, „U Know How I Feel“ makes you feel like they really do know, how you feel. Azaxx took all this and turned it into something completely different. To be honest, he might just have created an entirely new genre of soulful electronic dance music. Outstanding drum programming and the exact right amount of „when is that beat coming back again?!“ make his remix a very unique ride. Nemoy made a version too. He challenged himself to use the cheapest, most unintuitive and terrible synth you can imagine for this. And he made it sound like a Million Dollar. The shuffle on this one is a very weird animal – but also a very fluffy one. Go get it, before the others do! There are only 200 copies around!

Razor-N-Tape adds yet another new name to the roster with their latest release from Belgium’s @ucbeatz, delivering the deep housey business he’s become known for as founder of the limited-run vinyl-only label @entrepotrecords. On the A side, Midnight Swing is peak-time house affair with pulsating chords and infectious sampled vocals, while Bleu Ciel smooths it out with luscious synths and a familiar voice over a driving classic drum machine beat. @1codycurrie turns in a jazzy and bumpin remix of Bleu Ciel on the flip, adding his own vocals into the mix and the record winds down with the stripped-down and sultry Broken Idyll.
